What are the symptoms of fungal phimosis?

Balanitis mainly occurs in men who often neglect hygiene. When they were young, they found that their foreskin was too long, but they did not remove it in time. They did not pay attention to personal hygiene in daily life, especially when they took a bath, they did not pay attention to cleaning the smegma in the glans. These may lead to the occurrence of fungal balanitis. Generally, balanitis is divided into several pathological factors, usually trichomonal and fungal. The symptoms caused by these two factors are completely different. What we need to understand is the symptoms of fungal balanitis.

1. Sexually Transmitted Infections

The female reproductive tract mucosa is home to Candida albicans, some of which may become diseased while others may not and are long-term carriers. During sexual intercourse, these bacteria can be transmitted to the male genitals. If the foreskin is too long, personal hygiene is not taken care of, and the foreskin is not cleaned, it is easy to cause fungal glans balanitis.

3. Use soapy water too much to clean the foreskin and glans penis.
